Windows 98 looking Theme

Friday, July 25, 2003 by Adam Harriott | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Someone please help me. At work, I'm not aloud to use WinXP (I know, it's dumb) so I'm stuck with crash-prone-98. I've tried to make a theme with Objectbar and other programs, but the truth is, I suck at it. Can anyone help me make WinXP boot and look just like 98? It would make my job so much easier. Thanks!

You're not allowed to use XP at work.. but, you're gonna use it anyways and try and fool them with a 98 look? Clever but, it just might get your ass fired.

You must tell us why you can't use XP at work.

... I would know pretty fast that it was XP no matter what.
most likely the reason is that your company is too cheap to pay for an XP license. The classic theme that comes with XP is the closest you can get, use small icons on the start menu to remove the banner, the only obvious give away will be the windows logo on the start button... don't forget to disable the auto hide notification area and the pop up balloons. And be prepared for the brunt of MS should they do an audit
